AssertJ + Verify items in subset of list from the extracted list

Question

So, have an use case where in I extract title from the object, as list say 10 items, now need to verify the title is present in anyof the first 5 items. Using below method to extract the items.But not sure how to reduce the list and verify it.

softAssertions.assertThat(resultArrayList)
                      .extracting("title")
                      .as("Title match")
                      .isEqualTo(placeToSearch);

There is no direct way to do this with AssertJ, I think the easiest solution would be to take the 5 first elements and simply use contains as in:

softAssertions.assertThat(resultArrayList.subList(0, 5))
                  .extracting("title")
                  .as("Title match")
                  .contains(expectedTitle);

Note that using isEqualTo does not work in your example unless it corresponds to the exact list of the expected titles.

Thanks Joel Costigliola, it worked as expected. Also in the above way, do we have a way to get the matched index. – Rejish R Nov 30 '18 at 05:26
Nope, you won't get the matched index in my suggestion – Joel Costigliola Nov 30 '18 at 22:57
